0.8 inches.
425 is much bigger then 215.
Unlikely, it's MUCH wider.
If they have the identical aspect ratio and wheel diameter as comparing a 215/70-15 to a 205/70-15 the 215 tire will be .56" taller.
Yes, you can but your speedometer will be 1.8 mph to fast. A much better swap would be 225/65-16.
Yes it can.
The 215/55-16 tire is 3.24% (.85") smaller in overall diameter than the 215/60-16 tire. It is never advisable to go over 3% difference. Stick with the OEM size as recommended by the manufacture of your car.
I tried to fit the chains for a 215/70R15 on a 215/60R15, and the chains were too large. I suspect in your case the chains will be too small.
this means the with in centimetres
320 is bigger.
A 215 is a larger tire you would have to make sure it would clear when you turned your tires and when they moved up and down while driving. Also they may throw your cars computer off which would need recalibrating.
This 215 is the height of the tire in comparison with the sidewall size of the tire (see below). 70 and 75 is the distance between the edge of the tire where it meets the rim and the edge of the tire where it touches the road 15 is the inch diameter of the rim that the tire fits on. It was so much easier when the tires were determined via pure American standards before Carter adopted the metric mix up.
